TUAW Tip: Publish an iMix to your blog
In case you hadn't noticed, Apple is now making it easy for you to publish an iMix or Sport iMix (yours or someone else's) on your blog, "social networking profile," or any Flash-enabled web site. Unfortunately you can't stream any of the actual music or even the 30-second previews directly from the published iMix. Instead, those familiar little arrows take you to the iTunes Store where you can purchase the track your interested in, or the entire iMix. Still, this is a nice way to display the track list in an attractive manner. All you have to do is copy the HTML code that Apple provides under the "Publish to the Web" link on every iMix and paste that code where you want the list to appear. You can choose from two sizes and the RSS feed link to that iMix is provided as well. My one complaint about iMixes is that they lose context if you include things that aren't available in the iTunes Store. Apple simply truncates your playlist when you create an iMix out of it and omits any track that Apple doesn't sell. What they should do is list those non-iTS songs anyway and put a "notify me if this song is ever available to purchase" link next to them. That would maintain the integrity of the iMix and potentially generate future sales as well. [via Macworld UK]
